Chapter 588: 586. Every Family Has Their Own Troubles
Translator: 549690339
Ever since the old palace lord of the Black Water Palace, Infernal Queen Ji Tianqiong, had been restored, the Black Water Palace had not made any major moves. They had always kept a low profile.
Although the Palaceâs successors were not allowed to walk around the mortal world, Ji Tianqiong himself never stepped out of the Palace.
At least, that was what it looked like when the outside world could see it.
In Chen Luoyangâs eyes, this was a stark contrast to Ling Cangâs frantic search for the black coffin.
If everything was true, did it mean that the black coffin had returned to the Black Water Absolute Palace and fallen into the hands of the Infernal Queen, Ji Tiangiong?
Chen Luoyang was extremely suspicious.
When he was done with the matters at hand, he wanted to find a suitable time to meet the Demon Palace Master.
However, right now, he had to first look at the Wilderness and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
The Wilderness had yet to be completely settled, and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was in the midst of a storm.
While he was thinking, he stood up and walked out of the Sacred Palace, walking alone in the headquarters of the Ancient Gods Clan.
The disciples of Ancient Gods Clan that they met along the way all gave way to Cult Master Chen and bowed down.
Chen Luoyang strolled to the location of the Golden Parasol Tree at an unhurried pace.
The dazzling golden light was not as dazzling as when Emperor Xiâs ancient formation was set up, but the light still covered the entire headquarters of the Ancient Gods Clan.
The closer he got to the Golden Parasol Tree, the more condensed the light became.
Other than Chen Luoyang himself, no one else in the Ancient Gods Clan was able to get within 100 feet of the Golden Parasol Tree.
Even Xie Buxiu was only able to come into contact with the Golden Parasol Tree with Chen Luoyangâs help.
Chen Luoyang strolled under the tree and stretched out his hand to gently rub the surface of the tree trunk.
Although he had borrowed the Golden Parasol Tree as the core of the formation to set up the ancient formation of Emperor Xi, the formation he had set up was much weaker than the one in the Connate Tomb.
Otherwise, he would not have allowed the Manhuang Tribe Leader to escape.
If the great formation in the Connate Tomb really unleashed its power, even a Martial Honor would not be able to withstand it.
Now that he had re-set up the ancient formation of Emperor Xi, the upper limit of its power was lacking.
The other drawback was that even the current upper limit of its power could not be reached immediately. It needed a certain amount of time to accumulate and increase.
Against an expert like the tribe leader, Wolong Sha, it was possible for the other party to take advantage of the gap and break out of the formation before the power of the formation reached its peak.
The Golden Parasol Tree could be moved, which meant that the terrifying Emperor Xiâs ancient formation could also be moved. This gave Chen Luoyang a lot of convenience.
However, he still needed to let the Golden Parasol Tree rest for a while.
He immediately moved the Golden Parasol Tree a second time. The Golden
Parasol Tree had been greatly damaged, and if he moved it to another place to set up the ancient formation of Emperor Xi, the power of the formation might be even weaker than today.
He could absorb the Spiritual Power of Heaven and Earth in the Ancient Gods Clanâs headquarters to recuperate for a few days so that he wouldnât have to worry about this.
After all, he was not Emperor Xi of the past. The Golden Parasol Tree was a huge burden on the tree. He had to avoid draining the pond to catch the fish.
During this period of time, he could seriously think about it and carefully figure it out. He could further comprehend the array formation and try to make it stronger than it was now.
During this process, it would also be beneficial to oneâs own cultivation.
The Sky-Stealing Sun-Shifting Technique devoured You Hao and the others âforces, helping him save time and lay his foundation.
He would take a trip to the Connate Tomb and study Emperor Xiâs ancient formation to gain a deeper understanding of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao.
Chen Luoyang could sense that he was already standing at the threshold of the eighteenth realm. He was only half a step away from the peak mastery realm and the peak of the Martial Saint realm.
If he seriously accumulated and summarized what he had learned, he would be able to take this half-step very quickly.
He quietly looked at the Golden Parasol Tree in front of him. He did not speak for a long time and pondered quietly. Until he felt someone approaching.
So he thanked him endlessly.
Little Xie looked at Chen Luoyang, who was deep in thought under the Golden Parasol Tree. He didnât dare to get close for a moment and slowed down his footsteps, stopping in the distance.
However, Chen Luoyang had already opened his eyes.âWhat is it?â
â Reporting to Cult Master, the branches in various places have sent back news that the Wilderness has not launched a large-scale invasion. Since âOverlordâ
Wo Longsha retreated, the entire Wilderness seems to have stopped fighting. Xie Buxiu hurriedly reported.
When this news came back, everyone in Ancient Gods Clan heaved a sigh of relief.
Although Cult Master Chen had turned the tide and defeated the Manhuang Tribe King, Jiang Yiâs disappearance still made the people of the Ancient Gods Clan feel gloomy.
They didnât understand the specific situation of Emperor Xiâs ancient formation.
But generally speaking, formations often needed to rely on geographical advantage.
From another perspective, it was fixed and difficult to move.
Cult Master Chen had used Emperor Xiâs ancient formation to repel the Manhuang Tribeâs attack on the headquarters of the Ancient God Clan, thus ensuring the safety of the headquarters. It was indeed worth celebrating.
However, the Ancient God Clan had a vast territory, and the headquarters was never the only place under their control.
The headquarters was indestructible because of Emperor Xiâs ancient formation, but other places of the Ancient Gods Clan might still be threatened by the enemy.
Just like the West Qin Empire.
Although the crisis in the imperial capital, Zhengyang City, had been resolved, a large amount of land had been eroded and divided by the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, Southern Chu, Ancient Gods Clan, and other forces. The entire territory had shrunk by nearly half.
Although the Manhuang Tribe Leader couldnât break the Ancient Gods Clanâs headquarters, he could still trap all the high-level experts of the Ancient Gods Clan in the headquarters.
The other experts of the Wilderness could wreak havoc in the territory of the Ancient Gods Clan.
It didnât matter even if the tribe leader didnât make a move himself.
Where was the deterrence of this super giant? Even if he didnât show up, how could the people of Ancient Gods Clan fight with the experts of the Wilderness?
According to the Manhuang Tribal Lordâs usual style, as long as he couldnât break Emperor Xiâs ancient formation, he wouldnât allow his subordinates to attack the Ancient Gods Clan.
However, this was just a summary of his habits. He did not really make such a promise, so no one dared to take it lightly.
While the headquarters was being repaired, the disciples of Ancient God Clan outside the headquarters were also on guard against the attack of the Wilderness.
It was only now that everything was still calm that everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
However, he did not dare to let his guard down.
Even if the Wilderness didnât plan to launch a large-scale attack, they didnât have the obligation to keep it a secret for the Ancient Gods Clan.
The news that Jiang Yiâs whereabouts were unknown quickly spread throughout the mortal world.
The Ancient Gods Clan had to be wary of other enemies taking advantage of the situation to avoid following the footsteps of the Western Qin Empire. What was worth rejoicing about was that the forces of Ancient Gods Clan that had grudges in the past were now too busy to take care of themselves.
If the Wilderness didnât make a move, there was no need to say anything.
The West Qin Empire was even worse off. If the Ancient Gods Clan didnât attack it, the entire West Qin Empire would have to thank the heavens.
The buddha holy land, the western paradise, was busy arguing with the Boundless Temple of the bitter sea.
Emperor Chu of the South Chu Empire was in seclusion, and there would not be any movements.
The worst was Xian Tian Palace. If they did not bring back Ji Zhong and Tian Feng, they might have been exterminated at any time.
The phoenix was noble and did not like to fight. If no one provoked it, it would not take the initiative to look for others. Therefore, the Xian Tian Palace was more than enough to defend itself, but it was powerless to advance.
The Sky River Branch, which had a personal grudge against Cult Master Chen, had its own troubles.
Every family had their own difficulties, so the Ancient Gods Clan could still be stable for the time being.
â Donât relax. Continue to gather information from all sides. â Chen Luoyang instructed calmly under the Golden Parasol Tree.
âYes, this subordinate understands.â Xie Buxiu bowed.
Chen Luoyang ordered him to wait and then summoned the new Black Tortoise Hall Chief, Su Wei.
â The Black Tortoise Palace and the White Tiger Palace will cooperate to find 129,600 sycamore trees that are over a hundred years old. â Chen Luoyang flicked his finger lightly and a stream of light flew out from his fingertip and entered a jade scroll.
âAfter the parasol tree is found, plant it outside the main altar according to the map.â
After Su Wei and Xie Buxiu received the jade slips, they took turns to look at the diagrams within.
It was rare for the two of them to not reply to Chen Luoyang immediately. Instead, they sank into deep thought.
Chen Luoyang didnât urge them.
A moment later, Xie Buxiu said, âCult Master, can we split up? Donât worry, each batch will be planted according to the Innate Trigrams, and then the foundation of the previous batch will be continuously strengthened. I will do it myself. â
Chen Luoyang smiled when he heard this. He knew that Xie Buxiu, who had cultivated the Fuxi Yi Tian Chapter and had come into contact with the Golden Parasol Tree, had understood his intentions.
âSure.â Chen Luoyang nodded.
Xie Buxiu looked at Su Wei, and Su Wei nodded.â Itâs not a problem to split them up. I will help Cult Master and Chief Xie gather these parasol trees as soon as possible. â
Although he had just taken over the Black Tortoise Hall, Su Wei was confident and unhurried.
He had heard his younger brother mention the layout of the Connate Tomb before and understood Chen Luoyangâs intentions.
âGo ahead.â Chen Luoyang waved his hand, and the White Tiger and Black Tortoise Hall Chiefs retreated.
Cult Master Chen turned to look at the Golden Parasol Tree in front of him.
He couldnât completely relax in the Wilderness vet.
The tribe leader had retreated, and the Wildlands didnât launch a large-scale attack. However, who knew if it wasnât because the tribe leader was injured and didnât move?
This fellowâs strength was truly peerless and overbearing.
Now that the Sky Demon had not appeared and the Blood River had fallen, it was not too much for the Overlord to claim to be the number one person of the demonic path in the world of mortals.
Chen Luoyang had seen almost all of the top ten experts of the Red Dust Devil Dao. Among them, only Bie Donglai might be able to fight the Overlord.
If Abbot Fakong of the Boundless Temple, the Master of the Bitter Sea, could thoroughly comprehend the eighth move of the Buddhaâs Palm, Eternal Reincarnation, he would have the power to fight, but before that, there was no hope.
As for the rest, they were no match for âOverlordâ Wo Longsha in a one-on-one fight.
The only possible exception was the old Palace Lord of the Black Water Absolute Palace, Ji Tianqiong. Chen Luoyang had limited understanding of this person. He was too mysterious, so it was difficult to make a conclusion.
However, according to the rumors of his strength when he was in power a hundred years ago, he was probably not a match for the Manhuang tribe leader, Wolong Sha.
âThe silver-white light that protected his body at that time should have originated from the platinum imperial decreeâŠâ Chen Luoyang muttered to himself.
Although the tribe leader was proud and fond of martial arts, he was not a
one-track minded person who only attacked and did not defend.
Previously, in the Wilderness, because he protected the queen, he was heavily injured by Abbot Fa Kong and the old sword immortal. It was obvious that the tribe leader had learned his lesson.
The silvery-white light that had helped his defense increase in the ancient formation of Emperor Xi should have originated from the power concept of the Human Emperorâs platinum decree.
However, it was not the decree itself. It was because he had comprehended the principles and concepts of the decree and integrated them into his own martial arts. Under the circumstances where his attacks were still sharp, his defensive power was stronger than before. Otherwise, he might not have been able to escape Emperor Xiâs ancient formation alive.
This personâs talent in martial arts was truly astonishing.
Chen Luoyang pondered in his heart.
Two balls of light, one green and one yellow, appeared in his mind.
The Green Wood Talisman Edict and the Yellow Earth Talisman Edict appeared together..
